ok so i went out and bought the trinity pipe and holly crap what a difference , along with the 25 % nitro ( i had 15 before) i finally got the wheelie action abit, but heres my problem the manifold comes withe a rubber ring to put around the back of the engine and is supposed to fit over but i can't get it go on anywho, i want to know what i could do to seal it up nice and tight , no leaks cause now it leaks! maybe a product or something , any ideas would be appreciated



ok i just had a flash, what if i put some loc tite or tire crazy glue where it connects to the engine , any good , yes , no?

I wouldn't put anything like that around the exhaust manifold, you could get alittle inside and that wouldn't be good, besides most stuf would not seal up anything at that temperature. You will need to get a rubber gasket to seal it up properly, it's the Only way to do it right.
 
ok so finally i got it on , maybe i wasn't patient enough and jumped right to asking questions, but finally i pushed the o-ring on half way and then pushed the manifold on after and it slid on with a bit of greasee
 
Excellent, you will have no leaking problems now, and you should notice a power gain, especially if you were running it without a gasket for awhile!
 
dude this pipe along qith 25% is good , I'm just having problems tuning it abit , I'm still newb at this I'm might go back to factory settings and start from there. but this thing has power now , i finally got it to wheely with this setup but then backflipped it by accident
no wheelie bar
 
Sounds like fun, generally the more nitro you run the richer you should run it. Just make sure good power and a good smoke, you will be fine. Just make sure to have the smoke along with the power!

cool good to know i will test it tomorrow and give more feedback ,
 
Also if your not already runing a motorsavor airfilter, I find its easyer to tune with one for some reason espically with a trinity. Just a thought.
